A human if vandalised would cost even more.
Vandalising something with cameras sensors that can send an immediate distress signal is a very bad idea.

And ? What's your point ?
Plastic objects cant have sensors and cameras ?
TinyBurbz t1_jay9lpj wrote
So it's a an unfixed plastic object filed with sensitive electronics that is easily disabled by a can of spray paint?
maskedpaki t1_jayb2dz wrote
Yh and when it's disabled it sends an alert for a human to come in person. The idea isn't 0 humans in the loop. It's put these in the majority of a site area and have a smaller number of humans at a control center.
I'm guessing youve never worked in security. Most security guards don't do anything other than alert more senior members. I've worked security and can tell you a year can go by doing nothing more than sending a message to a security manager when something goes wrong.

oh no, at that point I only have like 30 minutes to an hour to make a daring escape!
Joking aside I do see the value especially when combined with a static camera system.

So it serves as an item to create a distraction?

How does this offer an advantage over security cameras that are significantly harder to disable?
>I'm guessing youve never worked in security. Most security guards don't do anything other than alert more senior members.
Every fucking time. EVERY FUCKING TIME.
"I guess you just DONT KNOW" its a fucking meme at this point.

I can see why you use past tense.
maskedpaki t1_jaykbys wrote
>So it serves as an item to create a distraction?
No. It notifies the security manager when there is an issue. Security guards arent batman. The job is to observe and report. Years will go by just observing and reporting. Any time something dangerous happens the police are called to resolve the issue. They have the relevant legal authority.
​
>How does this offer an advantage over security cameras that are significantly harder to disable?
because it can move in 3d space. Seeing things through static cameras that you cant manipulate in 3d space is like really hard. But once again you wouldnt know about that if youve never been in the industry. Call that a meme or whatever you want. Ignorance is ignorance.
​
>Every fucking time. EVERY FUCKING TIME.
Yup. Every fucking time. EVERY FUCKING TIME you show complete ignorance about what people in an industry Ive worked in actually do all day I will call you out on not knowing what you are talking about. Dont get me wrong there are people whove never worked in security who know what the job entails. You just happen not to be one of those people.
​
>I can see why you use past tense.
I left willingly because the hours never seem to match well to my graduate school program. I have never been fired from a security role and have been asked to return many times since leaving the industry.

You say "you don't know what's its like to work in security" as if you were working for the NSA.
Security jobs are some of the simplest and most easily understood professions to ever exist.
So why don't you fill us in on the big secret? What do we not understand about security officers and how they make sure places are secure?

So again.... what is the advantage over security cameras then?

Those cameras look incredibly low to the ground to be of a tactical advantage. I highly doubt you know what you are talking about at this point. Also not sure how 3D space is relevant at all here. Explain.
>But once again you wouldnt know about that if youve never been in the industry.

Bro, you are really tying to convince me that a: slow moving, undefended, low to the ground, plastic, multi-thousand dollar attractive nuance is an advantage over security cameras... because... 3D Space?
How does 3D space offer an advantage over cameras and motion sensors that have a vantage point?
Explain that to be "expert."
>I left willingly because the hours never seem to match well to my graduate school program.

Cameras are hung on high ceilings. They are often hard to see from and have blindspots.
​

lol my credentials ? You mean the 1 week long training I did to be a security guard? You have some weird idealised version of what a security guard is.
​
>Those cameras look incredibly low to the ground to be of a tactical advantage
humans are mostly standing on the ground in most crime scenes. Low is not a tactical disadvantage. Not when it can move around.
​
>The jokes write themselves.
And yet you were made by your parents.
​
>Bro, you are really tying to convince me that a: slow moving, undefended, low to the ground, plastic, multi-thousand dollar attractive nuance is an advantage over security cameras... because... 3D Space?
Yup.
​
​

Because moving on the ground is like .. exactly what the job of a security guard is. We like walk around and observe whats going on in exactly the same way this bot does.
​
>I left willingly because the hours never seem to match well to my graduate school program.
What are you doubting here ? the reason I left being a security guard ? What would one gain from lying about that. Its not like its some high tier profession that only the select few can do. I was making 13.50 an hour.
​
>Thank god.
For someone who knows literally 0 about what the job entails you sure like to pass judgement about what makes a good security officer.

This one, the one you said has cameras.

So now you remember the cameras are on the robot, convenient.

Yeah, you learned a lot about observation in that whopping week of training didn't you.

Not sure that works as well as you think it does.

It's more than walking beats. But you'd know that if you had more than a week.

Yeah, but you can defend yourself from a tarp. You dont become suddenly useless cause someone sprayed sauce on you.

Wow, you worked as a minimum wage guard at some cushy office after a whopping week of training.
That qualifies you so much to speak on security systems, huh?

I worked for several years. The week is for learning theory about the legal responsibilities. You can't even distinguish work from training you absolute moron.
>Wow, you worked as a minimum wage guard at some cushy office after a whopping week of training.
I've worked in several places spanning from retail to construction sites and yes cushy offices.

For whatever chair surfing you did, sure.
What about guards who have to learn Defensive-Evassive driving and carry guns... not quite the same training is it?
You dont know shit compared to them.
Your experience as security doesn't qualify you to speak on these bots.

Why would a human be more likely to be vandalized in a parking lot than anywhere else?
maskedpaki t1_jaykp26 wrote
They wouldnt be. The point is talking about edge cases like vandalism doesn't say much about the economics of automated security.
Sure some people will break bots.
Just like some people will steal packages from your front door. The macro question is whether the industry can absorb the new vandalism cases. I suspect it could.
Nukemouse t1_jaymgxn wrote
Vandalism of the robot would be more expensive than the common vandalism cases in the area it is protecting. If it creates a more popular target for vandalism that costs more to replace than the car or graffiti its supposedly preventing its terrible. This isn't an edge case, its a far more likely target.
maskedpaki t1_jayomtp wrote
its also a far more serious crime like how grand theft auto doesnt carry the same sentence as stealing a candy bar.
Why vandalise something that has sensors and can send a distress signal 50 milliseconds into you breaking it. You arent going to improve your chances by immediately putting a site on red alert after its surveillance systems have been messed with.

In my own experience when a door or camera was tampered with it sent a level 1 alert to the control center of the site I was working on. Why would anyone choose a strategy that leads to several men from the control room immediately showing up where you are committing your crime in a minute or 2. This is not a good strategy or a common one.

But I prefer a drone since that cannot be harmed by any punk and it looks more threatening to an intruder.
